Ribbed Shot Glass - Clear
Perfect for tequila! (and also makes a great tealight holder!) This chunky, ribbed shot glass is skilfully handmade in Mexico from recycled glassware using techniques that date back thousands of years.
It measures around 6.5cm x 5.5cm, but due to the handmade nature of the product, each one can vary in size. Whilst we will do our best to choose the most similar sized glasses for your order, we do only have what has been sent to us so please be aware that there might be quite a range of sizes in our delivery! Sold singly.
Why we love it
- Traditionally mouth blown and hand-shaped by eye so each piece is unique - minor imperfections are part of its enduring charm!
- Produced at a family run workshop in Oxaca, South Mexico
- Comes wrapped in real Mexican newspaper!
Sold singly. Approximate size around 6.5cm x 5.5cm. However, due to the handmade nature of the product, sizes can vary considerably from glass to glass. Milagros glassware is not uniform, minor imperfections are an inherent part of the handmade process.
Handwash recommended. Handmade glass can never be 'dishwasher proof' however it is usually pretty resistant to being put through a dishwasher. Dishwashers also tend to dull the glass over time.
Handmade at a family-run workshop in Oaxaca, South Mexico. The glass is melted down and then mouth blown, and the colour, if used, is added during this process. Each piece is shaped by hand and eye using techniques that date back thousands of years - and the fact that every one is a slightly different size and shape is part of its enduring charm! The trace of the maker is captured as the glass solidifies – small ripples and optical distortions are an integral part of the glassware - not for those who favour the symmetry of the production line!
It is a myth that recycling glass uses more energy than it saves. Recycling two glass bottles saves the equivalent energy of boiling 5 cups of water - which seems a small saving until you take into account that 2.4 tonnes of glass end up in landfill per year.
Milagros has been working with some of its main suppliers for over twenty years. It conducts its business in a mutually beneficial way to give its makers a reasonable income, and to provide its customers with unique, handmade products at a fair price.
